So i was sailing in bf 52 (the shallow part) and i was submerged. I picked up multiple hydro contacts and knew it was a convoy. I set intercept. About an hour later i raised my scope. I was in the middle of the convoy and saw a revenge bb 5000m from me. Although it was moving slowly i ended up behind it. My plan was to use mag. fish to blow the props off. Two mags detonated under keel which should have been a back breaker. It continued happily along. i only had one more torp and it was in stern. I used on a whale facotry and it sunk. Iwas then put down by dds and eventuall ran aground and sunk. Sad no. This was my first sighting of a sailing bb.

Looks like a Nelson class. At least we down like his name-sake, Horatio, fighting to the end.

I found a Nelson Class on my fourth patrol, only being escorted by two DD's...
He looked starving so we fed him with five eels... arrrrgh!!!:arrgh!:

Try the Mediterranean Convoy mission and you'll see Rodney and Nelson. http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/pirate.gif

I found a Nelson in GWX 2.0 during the invasion of Norway. I fired a salvo of 4, 3 pounded into its bow but she keep truck'n along. Problem she was escorted by about 8-10 DD's so for the next 1.5 hr I was just above crush depth and silent. When the DD's gave up I surfaced and took chase only to find Nelson bow down in the water, so I lesurely put 2 more into her to speed'n things up a bit.
